Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was waiting for you I was sat in the sun I could picture your face On the tip of my tongue I woke up laughing [Verse 2] I broke into my sweat I broke into a run You were hot on my heels So I hired a gun I woke up laughing [Verse 3] I was flat on my back I was taking a plunge It was making a stand But my plan was undone I woke up laughing [Verse 4] Well I planned an escape For the middle of June But I dug too fast And I fired too soon I woke up laughing I woke up laughing [Verse 5] You make yourself a fortune Out in Hong Kong You sit at home and wonder Whether you were wrong You take a small vacation Just to keep sane You find on your return Your home has blown away [Verse 6] You meditate, you make haste You run a risk, you come late You pay a bill, you lose face You're not fully unaware Are you a star or are you a fake? If you fall do you break? You go to war, you make love You sign out in a box [Verse 1] I was waiting for you I was sat in the sun I could picture your face On the tip of my tongue I woke up laughing [Verse 2] I broke into my sweat I broke into a run You were hot on my heels So I hired a gun I woke up laughing [Verse 3] I was flat on my back I was taking a plunge It was making a stand But my plan was undone I woke up laughing [Verse 4] Well I planned an escape For the middle of June But I dug too fast And I fired too soon I woke up laughing I woke up laughing I woke up laughing [Verse 5] You make yourself a fortune Out in Hong Kong You sit at home and wonder Whether you were wrong You take a small vacation Just to keep sane You find on your return Your home has blown away [Verse 6] You meditate, you make haste You run a risk, you come late You pay a bill, you lose face You're not fully unaware Are you a star or are you a fake? If you fall do you break? You go to war, you make love You sign out in a box
